Themed Movie Nights in Parks

Presented by Rose SD Realty, Summer Movies in the Park is the largest free, outdoor movie series in San Diego – and this year is no exception. The 2019 season is jam-packed with action and adventure, comedy, drama, fantasy, horror and romance!

More than 150 movie screenings are on the calendar, with
showings at dozens of parks across the County, from San Ysidro to
Oceanside and downtown San Diego to Borrego Springs.

Even better, this year we started something new: Theme nights! We’ve
coordinated a series of special showings to match all movie preferences.

Date
Night: We’re mid-way through our date night series, with 18
screenings to help cozy up to your main squeeze! Enjoy throw-backs
like “E.T. the Extraterrestrial” and “Some Like It Hot” plus newer
flicks like The Greatest Showman” in a serene setting, under the stars!

Sports:
“This is baseball, not tennis!” We’re showing some of the most
quotable sports films of all time, including “The Sandlot”, “Field of
Dreams” and Rookie of the Year”! We’ve built an epic experience for
sports fans… will you come?

Superhero
Cinema: What do Aquaman, Spider-Man and Captain Marvel have in
common? Action-packed screen-play at 19 outdoor destinations – just in
time for Comic-Con weekend, July 19 and 20! Don your best cape or
costume for an event where your favorite characters take center stage.

Girls
Night Out: Ladies, we’ve got a fun night planned for
you... ‘Bend and snap’ your way to Heritage
County Park on Saturday, Sept. 7 for a starlit showing of
“Legally Blonde”. Enjoy themed activities and learn about the launch
of County Parks’ first women-in-the-outdoors park program!

Friday
the 13th: “Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice,
Beetlejuice!” Head to Waterfront
Park on Friday, Sept. 13, to watch this revival of hilarious,
otherworld entertainment on the big screen! Dancing and singing encouraged.

Halloween:
Would you rather share your picnic blanket with a ghost, a gremlin or
a monster? Fortunately they are all friendly, and you don’t have to
choose! Throughout the month of October we’re showing 10 Halloween
classics. Wear your costume and participate in games; these fun
parties are a treat for movie lovers of all ages!

Movies start 15 minutes after sunset. Many locations offer arts and
crafts, games and other activities such as live entertainment and food
trucks for about an hour before the movie begins.

View the full schedule at Summer Movies in
the Park. You can also contact hosting parks for
additional information as no two events are alike!

Movies in the Park launched twelve years ago as a “take back our
parks” initiative, encouraging residents to spend time in parks, after
dark, to enjoy family-friendly entertainment, with the added benefit
of deterring inappropriate loitering and park use. Learn more.
